We’re encouraged by our parents to go to college and get a good job. This is a good way to guarantee student loan debt and line you up for a midlife crisis.

No job is “good” for the rest of your life. You’re excited now? You’ll get over it.

If you have anything of value to offer the world, don’t get a job! Provide.

Product or service – if it’s of value, we’ll buy it.

We don’t care how long it took you to do it. We only care about the value we receive. It it’s of value, we’ll pay you for it.

Don’t trade your time for money. De-couple your value from your time. Build a system that generates a passive income. This can be a business, a website like this one, becoming an investor or getting royalties from creative work. The system delivers value to customers and you get paid whether you’re at work or not.

It takes an initial investment of time and effort to build your passive income system. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Just remember to provide value.

If you don’t know how to start a business or build a website – no problem. Learn! Learning at a job may be useful for a minute, then it’s repetitive and useless. Don’t get a job. Go to the library. Or keep reading.

Yes, this all takes time. But when you’re done, you’re free. Instead of wasting your life away saving pennies for your midlife crisis, you’ll be working your way to financial freedom.

You like your job? Good. Do it because you like it. Not because you have to.

And if you do like your job, please help me understand how your natural independent will has come to terms with obeying your master’s nonsensical rules while you trade your time for his financial gain. Office party on his yacht?

Generate income through other means. You can earn income by trading value – not your time. Provide your best value and charge a fair price for it. Start a business and do what you do best.

All you really need is the courage to be yourself. Your value is in who you are, not what you do. Summon the courage to express your real self to the world.

You already know deep down that you don’t want a job. Trust your inner wisdom. Years from now you’ll thank yourself.
